Work Element 183: Produce Journal Article - Published

Basics

WE Name:
183. Produce Journal Article (Prod Scientific Rep)
Work Category:
RM & E and Data Management
WE Agreement Type:
Contracted
Status:
Active
Owner:
Martin Allen
Definition:
The "general title/subject" of an individual manuscript should be named in the WE title. This work element should only be used when either the study is complete, or when a very significant stage of the data collection and analyses are done, and the subject matter is well defined. Separate work elements should be used for each document. If you do not have a proposed title (or subject), you may not be far enough along in the data analysis to be using this work element. This work element applies only to manuscripts being submitted for possible peer-reviewed publication. Other technical analyses should be included as part of a project progress report 132. Produce Progress (Annual) Report.

Rules and Examples

  • Rule 1 : Manuscripts submitted for peer review to a scientific journal. Use this as the deliverable as long as the writer is still in the process of seeking journal publication.

    When uploading a manuscript:

    TITLE: "Manuscript:" (then insert an abbreviated title). Example: "Manuscript: Use of scales to identify fish."

    DESCRIPTION (on the upload window): In this section, place the full title as it would appear if it was cited in the Transactions of the American Fisheries Society. For example: Manuscript: Smith, R. 1980. Use of scales to differentiate hatchery from naturally-produced, river type salmon in the Columbia River.

    VIEW PERMISSION: If you are not ready to have this manuscript visible to the public, select "Contacts only." If you want to allow public view, select "Public." Note: A manuscript a can be uploaded with permission as "Contact Only." Once the author has withdrawn the manuscript for consideration for publication, the view permission should be changed to "Public" by the author.


  • Rule 2 : Journal Abstract Used more frequently than Journal Article. Insert a publically-accessible link to the on-line abstract ,as well as the citation of the article in Word document, document (as for the Journal Article above).

    When uploading a journal abstract:

    TITLE: "Abstract:" (then insert an abbreviated title). Example "Abstract: Use of scales to identify fish."

    DESCRIPTION (on the upload window): "Abstract:" plus the citation. In this section, place the citation of the document as it would appear if it was cited in the Transactions of the American Fisheries Society. For example: Abstract: Smith, R. 1980. Use of scales to differentiate hatchery from naturally-produced, river type salmon in the Columbia River. Transactions of the American Fisheries Society 118: 112-123.

    VIEW PERMISSION: Select "Public."


  • Rule 3 : Journal Article Used infrequently because of copyright restrictions. Printed, peer-reviewed, article in a scientific journal. Use this only if an article has been accepted for publication AND you have received permission from the copyright owner to post reprints of the article. Deliverable date is the date the journal article is expected to be available to the public in the journal. Often the reprint is a PDF document distributed to the author(s) instead of hard copies.

    When uploading a journal article:

    TITLE: "Article:" (then insert an abbreviated title). Example "Article: Use of scales to identify fish."

    DESCRIPTION (on the upload window): "Article:" plus the citation. In this section, place the citation of the document as it would appear if it was cited in the Transactions of the American Fisheries Society. For example: Article: Smith, R. 1980. Use of scales to differentiate hatchery from naturally-produced, river type salmon in the Columbia River. Transactions of the American Fisheries Society 118: 112-123.

    VIEW PERMISSION: Select "Public."

    BPA encourages submission of significant scientific findings to peer-reviewed journals. However, it is recognized that not all scientists have the time or inclination to seek publication in peer-reviewed journals.


  • Rule 4 : Technical Report Report may or may not have received technical review. Technical review may be internal and/or external. A technical report may be part (chapter/section) of a larger report, including an annual or progress report. If this is the case, use 132. Produce Progress (Annual) Report.

    If the findings are based on a fairly large experiment, preparation of a technical report as a separate document is greatly encouraged to provide ease of location and citation for the public wishing to read the final results. The stand-alone nature of the final findings of an experiment may be better served as a separate document, rather than buried as part of an Annual Progress Report. BPA's preference is generally for a separate document for more significant efforts.

    When uploading a technical report:

    TITLE: "Technical Report:" (then insert an abbreviated title). Example "Technical Report: Use of scales to identify fish."

    DESCRIPTION (on the upload window): "Technical Report:" plus the citation. In this section, place the citation of the document as it would appear if it was cited in the Transactions of the American Fisheries Society. For example: Technical Report: Smith, R. 1980. Use of scales to differentiate hatchery from naturally-produced, river type salmon in the Columbia River. Transactions of the American Fisheries Society 118: 112-123.

    VIEW PERMISSION: Select "Public."

    If the findings are based on a fairly large experiment, preparation of a technical report as a separate document is greatly encouraged to provide ease of location and citation for the public wishing to read the final results. The stand-alone nature of the final findings of an experiment may be better served as a separate document, rather than buried as part of an Annual Progress Report. BPA's preference is generally for a separate document for more significant efforts.

    Example: A 3-year experiment comparing the physiological response to loading into transport trucks of fish reared in low density versus high density raceways is part of an overall larger experiment to determine differences between different densities at several stages of the life history. Although the "umbrella experiment" is not finished until the adult returns are complete, the juvenile physiology experiment has been completed. All 3 years of juvenile physiology data should be analyzed as a separate, distinct, stand-alone "report" describing the full 3 years of methods, data collection, analyses, and conclusions. A stand alone report is most desirable.

  • Rule 5 : Programmatic Review Generally provides a high-level review of goals, objectives and accomplishments of a large program over a long number of years. Intent is generally to provide scientifically-based management recommendations to aid in adaptive management. (e.g., Programmatic assessment of spring Chinook salmon hatchery production in the Hood River from 1988 to 1997).

    When uploading a programmatic review:

    TITLE: "Programmatic Review:" (then insert an abbreviated title). Example "Programmatic assessment of spring Chinook salmon hatchery production in the Hood River from 1988 to 1997."

    DESCRIPTION (on the upload window): "Programmatic Review:" plus the citation. In this section, place the citation of the document as it would appear if it was cited in the Transactions of the American Fisheries Society. For example: Programmatic Review: Smith, R. 1980. Programmatic assessment of spring Chinook salmon hatchery production in the Hood River from 1988 to 1997.
